Peas and Mr. Peacock (but not together)

8042013

Jim heated up peas this evening, as part of our supper. But Kajsa requested her peas to remain frozen and not be heated up. So Jim obliged. He set hers aside, and she ate most of her peas frozen. She tossed a few peas into her soup, just for the novelty of it, I think.. but the biggest novelty was her new creation: frozen peas on a cracker. Strange, but true.

And, in other news… he’s back!! Mr. Peacock, that is. As I write this, he is roosting in one of our backyard trees. We’ve heard his cawing noises off and on for the past couple of weeks. But today we heard him a lot. The cawing got louder and louder and we realized he was in our backyard again. So how does one respond to Mr. Peacock visiting again? Grab your camera, naturally.

Happy roosting, Mr. Peacock…just don’t wake us up in the early morning with your cawing!

When I was a kid, it was fun to go to our city park/zoo, where peacocks wandered all over the place freely. It never occurred to me to wonder why they stayed within the boundaries of the park, or where they spent the winter. My goal was to find the best dropped tail feather to take home as a souvenir. Beautiful birds, but you are right…. The cawing can get very annoying!
